Watering, weeding, mulching and feeding are the most useful jobs you can be doing this month in your garden. ​Applying mulch around the base of your plants can conserve up to 70% moisture in the soil and suppresses weeds too. ​

Get your fruit trees ready for winter. Feed citrus trees with a citrus fertiliser for best results.

It is not too late to plant end of summer crops of lettuce and herbs to enjoy summer salads for as long as you can.
